Eclectic Mix of “Some Guys”

Canton — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 20:45:34 +0000

A departure from my usual dance/electronica mixes. This one includes everything from Appalachian blues to electronic/glitch to hip hop to pirate ballads to chants. I put this together when a group of my Guy Friends got together to share stories and music. The only theme to this mix that the songs are all recorded by … guys.

Funky Nasty Techno Mix

Canton — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 01:58:19 +0000

Recorded live from on top of Roe Mesa at a party in Northern New Mexico this past weekend. Funky techno / electro, featuring songs with dirty(ish) vocal samples. Starts off with 128 BPM techno, ends up with 140 BPM full-on breaks. (The set then continued into big drum ‘n’ bass and went all over the place… but these 50 minutes are the best part.)

These include mellow sets (like Leah’s Moon Mix) as well as straight up techno and funky tekhouse mixes (like the Dinosaur Mix and Dirty Secrets) and lot of Drum and Bass — including that great 1990′s era stuff that was so melodic and jazzy. If you like d’n'b be sure to check out Strictly Junggle 3 – a live recording from an outdoor renegade where the mixer feed was supplimented by an MS-stereo microphone feed so you can hear the crowd, the nitrous tank, etc…
